Further information

Software: gappy v1.0

gappy extracts splids (split-inducing indels) from a given alignment and creates a binary absence/presence matrix. gappy is implemented in the C++.

The tool reads multiple sequence alignments in FASTA format. The user can select a minimum and maximum indel length for determining splids. By default, the output is a FASTA file, containing the binary coded splid absence/presence information, and some summary statistics.

Output is also available in PHYLIP and NEXUS format.
